FK Bodo/Glimt striker Kasper Junker is interested in a potential move to England, with Crystal Palace and West Bromwich Albion allegedly keen, as he told BT.
When the Eliteserien champions won their first league title in nearly two decades recently, they must have known, deep down, that their finest crop of players in a generation would not be sticking together for long.
Talisman Philip Zinckernagel joined Watford last week, while fresh-faced whizz-kid Jens Petter Hauge is now skipping past full-backs in the red and black of AC Milan.
Left-back Fredrik Andre Bjorkan has also been tipped to join Zinckernagel in England, while Junker has plenty of admirers on the other side of the North Sea.
TEAMtalk claims that Premier League duo West Brom and Crystal Palace are keen, with the 26-year-old Dane also a target for Derby County, Middlesbrough, Swansea and Bristol City.
“Some concrete things have started to come up. Especially the English stuff, sounds very interesting,” said Junker.
“There has also been a lot of interest from the Bundesliga, and (playing in Germany) is a dream.
“There have been a lot of inquiries and we are looking at it very seriously, because this is a springboard for me. I owe the club – the (financial) package must also be good for them.
“If nothing happens now, then I get to play in the Champions League with the club this summer. But it’s clear that, if something good comes, I will hop in that carriage.”
Junker scored 27 goals in 28 games across the 2020 campaign, while producing a further 11 assists.
TEAMtalk believe that Celtic is another potential destination for a 6ft 1ins centre-forward who has two years left on his contract.
